3 1. Language and Culture Notes： Please refer to the Language and Culture Notes in Teacher’s Book (Book Two) for College English---Focus Listening and Speaking (Pages 4, 6, 17 & 20) 2. 数字题的听力技巧： “数字题”的内容涉及价格、电话号码、门牌号、年龄等。数字题一般分两类，一类是辨认数字：对话中提到多个数字，答案是其中之一，不需计算。另一类是数字计算：利用对话中的提示，对几个数字进行简单的计算后得出答案。数字题失分主要有两大类情况：第一类是混淆数字，如读音相近的单词。这需要大家平时多注意发音练习。第二类是记忆问题。这种情况我们可以通过“边听边记法”和“默念法”来解决。此外，在做此类题目时，我们还应注意：遇到数字题时不要急于做出判断，在问题没出来之前，你可以先计算、预测，听懂问题后再选择。在对付包含多个数字、时间或多项简单事件的判断题时，争取时间是非常重要的，因为这类试题考的是你的“记忆力”和“快速辨别、快速反应能力”。而最大限度地利用所给出的选项是争取时间的关键。在平时的听力课上和课后练习时，同学们应多做 “note-taking”的练习，训练自己在“听”的同时也能适当地写一点，能耳、眼、手、脑并用。 3.

You can get him at 163244. 4．Supplementary reading and listening: Living in a Telephone Society When you first arrive in a Western country, you’ll probably find that constantly ringing telephones nearly drive you crazy. But you’ll get used to it after a while, and you’ll probably come to rely on phones almost as much as Westerners do. Phones provide a simple and efficient means to conduct work, handle social arrangements and function from day to day---unless you sit and “chitchat” on the phone for hours as some people do. Several times in the course of a work day(or often in the evening as well) you may consult by phone with colleagues, students, lab assistants, secretaries, librarians or others on work-related matters. If you want an appointment with your department head, you would normally call him and arrange a time either with him or through his secretary. If you were unable to keep your appointment (or if you found you had to be late for it) you would phone and change plans. In this way, no one wastes time waiting for someone who isn’t coming, and no one wastes visiting someone who isn’t at home or is already busy with someone or something else. If you wanted to buy a certain tube or chemical or book for your work, you would “let your fingers do the walking”, that is, you would look in the yellow pages (business section) of your phone directory and call ahead to make sure the store has t you need, and at a good price. If it’s an expensive item, you might call several stores to compare prices. And if they have to order something special for you, you might ask them to call you when it comes in. so much time saved! In small places, like college towns, you might drop in on friends informally. But in big cities you never just show up at someone’s house (even a relative’s) without calling first. We arrange not only our work schedules very carefully, but our off-work time as well. Look up someone’s phone in the white pages (home phones) of your directory, then call. The response may be: “Great. We’d love to see you. Come on over.” Or, the response may be: “I’m really busy tonight. How about tomorrow night at 9:30?” Time is precious; even our language shows that we treat time like a commodity to be “spent”, “saved” or “wasted”---people are generally annoyed with themselves or others when they have “wasted” their time. And in daily life, too, your phone saves time and money. If you want to go to a film, you might call to see what’s playing, ask the time schedule and check the prices; if you want to take a train, bus or plane, you can call to find out schedules, prices and ticketing information, and to make a reservation if you want to shop for clothes after work, you might call to ask how late the store is open before you travel all the way downtown. Phones are easily accessible: you’ll find home phones, office phones, and pay (or public) phones in which you deposit coins to make a call. Today, people also have automatic answering services: if they are not at home or in the office (or don’t wish to be disturbed) they switch on a machine which will answer your call. A pre-recorded message will say to: “I’m sorry, so-and-so is not in at the moment. At the tone, please leave your name and number and he/she will call you back as soon as possible.” Don’t get flustered when you hear the “beep”. It’s more efficient to leave your name and number than to waste your time calling again and again
